Before You Begin
You may use your remote control to
operate your 8600x Home Commu-
nications Terminal right away. There
are instructions for using the keys on
the back of your remote control. But if
you want your remote control to oper-
ate your TV power on/off, volume and
mute controls, you need to follow the
instructions that follow.
To control your TV functions, you
need to tell your remote control the
type of TV you are using. This will
enable you to use your remote control
to operate the power, on/off, volume
and mute controls on your TV. To tell
your remote control the type of TV
you are using, follow steps 1 through
4.
Step 1.
Find your TV code.
Find the three-number TV code(s) that
corresponds to your TV. Most brands
have more than one code. Start with
the first code.
Step 2.
Turn your TV on.

Step 3.
To tell your remote control to turn
your TV on and off, and to control
your TV’s volume and mute, follow
the three steps below.
(If you want your remote control to only
turn your TV on and off, skip this step and
go to step 4.)
A. Hold down the TV POWER
key.
B. Enter your three-number
TV code.
C. Release the TV POWER
key.
• Your TV should turn off when you
enter the third number of the code.
• If your TV does not turn off when
you enter the third number of the
code, turn to TV Brands and Codes
and find the next code for your TV.
Repeat step 3 using the next code.
Continue repeating this step until your
TV turns off.
If none of the codes for your type of
TV work, see If You Have A Problem
in the guide.
Step 4.
To tell your remote control to
ONLY turn your TV on and off, fol-
low the four steps below.
A. Hold down the TV POWER
key.
B. Press 9
C. Enter your three-number
TV code.
D. Release the TV POWER
key.
• Your TV should turn off when you
enter the third number of the code
• If your TV does not turn off when
you enter the third number of the
code, turn to TV Brands and Codes
and find the next code for your TV.
Repeat step 3 using the next code.
Continue repeating this step until your
TV turns off.
If none of the codes for your type of
TV work, see If You Have A Problem
in the guide.
If You Have A Problem
If you are unable to find the correct
code in TV Brands and Codes, the
Series 8600x Remote Control can
search all the codes for you. To do
this, do the following:
1. Turn your TV on.
2. Hold TV POWER down and press
999 on the number keys to tell your
remote control to operate your TV
power on/off, volume and mute. Or,
press 9999 if you want your remote
control to operate only the TV power
on/off.
3. Repeatedly press TV POWER until
your TV turns off. When your TV
turns off, stop pressing TV POWER.
(There are at least 85 different codes,
so this may take some time.)
4. Press LAST
You may press MENU at any time to
end the search.
If your remote control will not op-
erate your TV, try the following:
• Make sure the remote control is
correctly programmed - see steps 1
through 4
• Shorten the distance between the
remote control and the TV. Also, point
the remote control directly at your TV
or home communications terminal
• Replace the batteries. Your remote
control uses two AA alkaline batteries.
If you replace the batteries in the
remote control, you must repeat steps
1 through 4.
